A-
Patchett & Tarses wrote this hilarious episode about the off-screen death of Mr. Gianelli and its effects on the group and Bob. It's great to see Mrs. Bakerman by the way, although as always Mr. Carlin can steal a scene just with a disdainful look. Bonerz does a fine job of directing, including not just the comedic timing but the relatively serious scene where he and Newhart talk about death. Season Four is on a streak, although I doubt they can maintain it. And, yes, as with M*A*S*H, this is the 75th episode and aired in '75.
